• Abstract: In this paper, we present a multi-label stereo matching method to simultaneously estimate the depth of the transparent objects and the occluded background in transparent scenes.Unlike previous methods that assume a unimodal distribution along the disparity dimension and formulate the matching as a single-label regression problem, we propose a multi-label regression formulation to estimate multiple depth values at the same pixel in transparent scenes. To resolve the multi-label regression problem, we introduce a pixel-wise multivariate Gaussian representation, where the mean vector encodes multiple depth values at the same pixel, and the covariance matrix determines whether a multi-label representation is necessary for a given pixel. The representation is iteratively predicted within a GRU framework. In each iteration, we first predict the update step for the mean parameters and then use both the update step and the updated mean parameters to estimate the covariance matrix. We also synthesize a dataset containing 10 scenes and 89 objects to validate the performance of transparent scene depth estimation. The experiments show that our method greatly improves the performance on transparent surfaces while preserving the background information for scene reconstruction.

  Existing models are sensitive to factors such as boundary frequency of objects in the scene and scene complexity. We propose a solution by taking samples of the image along with the initial depth map prediction made by a pre-trained MMDE model. Compared to existing iterative depth refinement techniques, MultiDepth does not employ normal map prediction as part of its architecture.

  This paper focuses on semi-supervised crowd counting, where only a small portion of the training data are labeled. We formulate the pixel-wise density value to regress as a probability distribution, instead of a single deterministic value. Our method clearly outperforms the competitors by a large margin under various labeled ratio settings.

  We propose a fully differentiable Many-to-Many (M2M) splatting framework to interpolate frames efficiently. For each input frame pair, M2M has a minuscule computational overhead when interpolating an arbitrary number of in-between frames. We extend an M2M++ framework by introducing a flexible Spatial Selective Refinement component, which allows for trading computational efficiency for quality and vice versa.

We provide a stable solution for training the eigenvalue-decomposition function (EIG) in a GPU and demonstrate the corresponding back-propagation using matrix calculus.
